The Art of the Pulps - An Illustrated History Hardcover Book
A visual celebration spectacular pulp magazine artwork, compiled by the field’s leading authorities.
From the beginning of the 20th Century through the Second World War, the pulps were a formidable storytelling force on the newsstands of America, selling millions of copies and forging bold new directions in science fiction, crime fiction, westerns, romance - even spicy fiction! Authors such as Edgar Rice Burroughs, Robert E. Howard, and Rayman Chandler; characters such as Tarzan, Conan, and Doc Savage - all got their starts in the pulps, under breathtaking cover art by Norman Saunders, Walter Baumhofer, Frank R. Paul, and other titans of the field.
In ’The Art of the Pulps,’ authors, genre aficionados, and pulp historians Douglas Ellis, Ed Hulse, and Robert Weinberg and their team of contributors explore the rich history of the pulps, drawing on their personal archives of scarce pulp magazines and cover art. With over 400 rarely seen pulp covers and original illustrations, alongside fascinating commentary and insights into the magazines, publishers, writers and artists who created the pulps, ’The Art of the Pulps’ is the most extensive illustrated history of the form yet seen.
